Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a collision energy absorbable steering column of a vehicle, and more particularly to a collision energy absorbable steering column of a vehicle, which includes a wire block assembly that is fixed to a mounting bracket and that can absorb collision energy by wire deformation when a vehicle crashes against an object.
  • a steering column refers to an apparatus, which encloses and supports a steering shaft that delivers rotatory force generated by a steering wheel operation of a driver to a rack-pinion mechanism, and is fixed to a chassis of a vehicle through a bracket, so as to fix a position of the steering shaft.
  • a collision energy absorbing steering column having a newly added collapse function that allows both the steering column and the steering shaft to be contracted in its shaft direction has been employed as a steering column. That is, when a driver is involved in a crashing accident during the driving, the upper part of the driver's body hits against the steering wheel due to inertia. When the upper part of the driver's body hits against the steering column, the steering column and the steering shaft provided on the lower part of the steering wheel are contracted so as to reduce the impact applied to the driver.
  • the collision energy transferred to the steering wheel due to the collision between the steering wheel and the driver depends on a driver state and a vehicle state. For example, large collision energy is transferred when the vehicle has a high speed, while small collision energy is transferred when the vehicle has a low speed. Further, the amount of collision energy applied to the steering wheel depends on several conditions such as the wearing of driver's seat belt, operation of an air bag, etc. A steering apparatus equipped with a tearing plate has been developed to cope with these conditions.

  • the steering column 100 is contracted in the direction (i.e. a collision energy transfer direction or a collapse direction) in which the impact has been applied to the steering wheel. Then, the mounting bracket 130 moves together with the exterior tube 120 in the collapse direction from the capsule 140 fixed on the chassis 104 . That is, when the collision occurs, the mounting bracket 130 is separated from the capsule 140 , is easily released from the chassis 104 , and then moves in the collapse direction (i.e. in the collision energy transfer direction), while the steering column 100 is contracted.

  • the tearing plate 170 is provided with a tearing groove 210 with a uniform depth.
  • the mounting bracket 130 moves against the capsule 140 , and the mounting bracket 130 moves downward. Then, force from the capsule 140 and force from the mounting bracket 130 are applied to the tearing plate 170 in opposite directions. As a result, the tearing plate 170 is torn along the tearing groove 210 formed on the tearing plate 170 according to the movement of the mounting bracket 130 while absorbing the collision energy. That is, the fixing member 160 formed on the mounting bracket 130 absorbs the collision energy while deforming the tearing plate 170 .
